This is so cool, please keep featuring photos tagged ‘Vintage’… I now find myself curious now to learn more about photography and read more into discussions like the one quoted from here… Thanks again.

Im loving the first photo. So powerful and emotional. You can see how the emotion is truly the centre of this photo… the rest is blurred while the only thing that has stayed intact is the crying man. So strange too… the woman, she’s protecting him. Masterly.

The exhibit of his work at the MoMa a few years ago was fantastic. I wrote about the first one for a class. He captured everyone’s emotions in the frame and it conveys a feeling of the scene at that exact moment. Simply beautiful!

Bresson’s work was always a reflection of human condition where it created a reflective state of mind that permeated the viewer’s reality. In that, it was extremely powerful and emotional. I find it strange that his photos would show up here, a site were we look at the surface of life – in a way that disables a person to see beyond what a person wears, and if in anyway this site reflects the human conditions it exposes our indulgence in material things, vanity and narcissism – these are the only emotions that wash up on this site. Bresson captured historical moments of pain and joy, unlike here and to use Bresson to extend your lack is a pathetic attempt.
